It is difficult for me to not just reflectively think of the spinny solar system model used in schools when the reality is an orbital plane that differs for each planet circling the gravity well drain plug of the sun and us all circling the

That's the secret here that everyone knows so well you can't even really say it because it doesn't add anything, but, you can't I wouldn't think.

Most PMs resist this because then they know the understanding of the requirements falls upon them at that point and this has been traditionally the role of architects, analysts, developers, other stakeholders etc and if you replace them wit

Amazing that at nearing the 50 comment mark and there only seems to be people who have successfully created tutorial examples? And some other things that could be done with more purpose specific traditional solutions. And some people showin

This is the key question... "What is the total information in this model and interaction?"

For me, the show stopper is that every single token is suspect. Adding layers of more of it compounds this suspicion, leading to fatigue and automation bias, amplifying the speed of error or technical debt while possibly even acting against

This is what I gather from reverse engineering material I've read and groups I've been around. Hidden state, hidden data structures, hidden automations all abound, and there simply isn't enough detail in the assembler itself

Simon gets one thing working for one task and assumes everyone can do the same for everything. That's the trick is that he has no idea how the failures happen or how to maintain actual working systems.

More dishonest magical thinking. I wish this guy would learn how systems work and stop flooding the field with mystical nonsense unless he really is trying to make people think LLMs are worthless, then I guess he should be honest about it i

There's something you don't know that it may know and you want to see what it knows. This is like just a sentence or maybe a few both input and output. All the other talk about this model vs that model vs agents vs rag vs prompt e

Lots of propaganda aimed at this man to undermine him. Still to this day people will say he was "a nice man" as a way to diminish his accomplishments and turn the conversation away from them.

Accusing organizations of fraud without evidence isn't great.

In my experience, if you can make a reasonable guess as to the total contained information about your topic within the given size of model, then you can be very specific with your context and ask and it is generally as good as naive use of

Maybe your comment was meant to highlight costs and logistics or maybe it was meant to simultaneously undermine their project and projects like them, who can say? Do you think you'll be contributing or do you think there's fraud a

I don't think people are aware of the line at all. You ask five different people which things are reliable in any of these systems and you'll get five different guesses. C'mon here.

I'm thinking of the system you built to watch videos and parse JSON and the claims of that having a general suitability, which is simply dishonest imo. You seem to be confusing me with someone that hasn't been asking you repeatedl

Lots of lists of the myths of LLMs out there https://masterofcode.com/blog/llms-myths-vs-reality-what-you... Every single post glosses over some aspect of these myths or posits they can be controlled or mitigated in so

This is the location of the arguments. When they work they're "magical" but when they don't work "well people or other things are just as bad" ... And this means that you just cannot reason with the mysticism p

You're forgetting the information hazard of five years from now someone mentioning a movie and you saying "oh I didn't want to watch that because of the car chase" and everyone looks at you funny because it is a film set

If I invested money into a film, I would want its representation in the world to reflect what the movie is about at the very least.

Yes, like, how are corporations (like movie productions in this example) supposed to control their message?
